Welcome to home of DB

Welcome to the homepage of DB, a fast and small OS3.0 compliant multi purpose database program.

YOU decide what to store in it, be it addresses, video collections spare parts or your invoices. I really can't understand why people keep releasing databases with fixed fields all the time.

When you use db you will notice that the user interface has been kept as compact as possible (few gadgets, menus and windows). Still the functionality in for example, searching and sorting is high. This is intentional. I prefer few buttons with high functionality than the opposite.

DB is formerly created by David Ekholm, but since version 3.5, the development is under control of Marcin Orlowski.
